Shorter version of my previous query

Dear Sir, 

 i was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder only last year. It is caused by childhood trauma. I had multiple s*x partners before marriage. Sex is the coping mechanism for trauma. That is nothing but abusing my body according to the psychologists. Back then BPD was unheard of so psychologists couldnt diagnose me. Married to a narcissistic personality disorder husband. I told him about my past. He told me he wanted to live with me. But all the while for the 19 yrs of marriage he poisoned me and I had severe health issues. We are going through a divorce now and he is committing atrocities to make me leave the city so I don't attend court hearings and he doesn't have to pay me alimony. I have fallen back on the same patterns of multiple s*x partners to deal with the trauma he is giving me. He is character assassinating me. I want to declare that I am a BPD in the court and also that I can heal. He cannot heal. I need finances to heal. I was a house wife. Can I still get alimony?

Have you filed th maintenance case, if not you may file it and make the pleadings incorporating the information what you have stated here in this subsequent post and argue your case based on the facts and details you rely upon.

But Sir... Is it safe to talk about multiple s*x partners and accept that in the court? Will the court be ok with this aspect of my disorder and grant me alimony because i can heal and live a healthy life. My husband is character assassinating me getting me removed from jobs and I lost all my friends.

Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of facts, professional advise and necessary proceeding.

That's the problem. They don't want me to disclose this as it might affect the alimony. But he is character assassinating me. It won't be long before he proves me characterless in the court.. The truth is there nothing called a characterless woman. It has everything to do with childhood and formative years. It's been proved now in psychology.

Disclosing sensitive personal information, including multiple s*x partners, in a court setting can be challenging and potentially risky. The court's primary concern is the legal issue at hand, not your personal life or medical condition. Factors to Consider: - *Relevance to the Case*: Determine if disclosing this information is relevant to your case and necessary for securing alimony. -

 *Potential Impact*: Consider how this disclosure might affect your case, your relationships, and your overall well-being. -

 *Alternative Approaches*: Explore alternative ways to address your situation, such as focusing on your husband's actions (character assassination, interference with employment) and their impact on your life. Legal and Personal Implications: -

*Stigma and Bias*: Unfortunately, there is still a stigma surrounding mental health conditions and non-traditional relationships. This might influence the court's decision or how you are perceived. -

*Privacy Concerns*: Sharing intimate details in a public forum like a courtroom can be uncomfortable and may compromise your privacy. Recommendation:

1. *Consult an Attorney*: Discuss your situation with an experienced family law attorney who can provide guidance on the best approach for your specific case.

 2. *Focus on Relevant Issues*: Emphasize the aspects of your case that are most relevant to the legal issue at hand, such as your husband's actions and their impact on your life.

 3. *Protect Your Privacy*: Be cautious about sharing personal information and consider the potential consequences of disclosure.

Thsnk you Sir.। understand what you say. He is anyway character assasinating me with this medical condition of mine getting me removed from jobs, spoling my relationships with people. What choice do I have ? I guess defamation case should do under the circumstances

T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate)     28 March 2025

Character assasination may not be due to your medical condition but due to yor extra marital affairs with multiple persons, however since you admit yourself to indulge in such activities with multiple persons, in my opinion there is no question of defaming you at all even if he is mking a complaint to your employer about your character, which can be done in good faith too.

I didn't have extra marital affairs. This was before marriage. And it was because of my medical condition. BPD indulge in multiple s*x partners. And now because of his abuse after separation I have fallen back to the same patterns and I was diagnosed for it. On the other he is a diagonsed NPD. It's pathological. Thry are psychopaths. I clearly told him about my past and told him he can divorce me if he doesn't want to live with me but he lived with me for 19 yrs and doing this just because he doesn't want to pay me anything. He could have easily someone else.long ago They are financially well off

A short reply is, the Court may not look at BPD or NPD or any psychological problem in the same way as you look at them. I suggest that you do not talk about BPD or NPD or any other problem you or your husband may have. Try to build a strong case without saying anything about these psychological problems anywhere.

The facts posted are contradictory, which are either "concealed" or "fabricated" accordingly I had advised to consult a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts and professional advise.

It's neithe concelaed nor fabricated. I have the medical records to prove it.
